UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon noted that the violence in Syria seems to be down wherever the UN monitor team happens to be deployed, but that it flares up wherever they are not. Currently there are 30 monitors in the country, up from 4 just two weeks ago, and the Syrian government has agreed to see 300 eventually deployed.

French officials have said that when Annan confirms the ceasefire is not being kept they will push for a UN invasion to oust Bashar Assad and install the rebels as the new government.
